Yup, I got bored and "fixed" the vert feed A-5. I sold off everything, to it's ghetto, totally stock but has a Halo on it. The paint and bondo look like crap, but I don't care, this gun will see VERY little use, and is more so a show off peice. All I need is to send my broken valve in to Tippmann and get it replaced and the gun will be fully working once again.






And the teaser with the Halo....

Yup, that's it. Don't bother whining and saying that it's stupid the cyclone's off, the cyclone sucks and always breaks, I hate it with a passion, and this is pretty much a show only gun anyways.



EDIT: NEW PICS!!!

I slapped on a Check It feedneck, and took more time sanding it down. Looks nice, and I am now done touching it.

that has to be the uglyist thing i have ever seen.

it needs a few hours of care and attention if you ask me. but its a good start. bondo is sandable it shouldent be all that hard to get it looking perfect. untill then im still dissapointed.

pluss the fert feed neck is on crooked. my credo is if its worth doing its worth doing right the first time.

Haha, hours, like I have the attention span for that, ADD kids 4 lifE. 
Like I said, I don't really care about it, so it's staying as is unless I get unsually motivated, mind you it was in my garage broken for nearly 4 months.
